A Simple Model for Estimating the Hydraulic Conductivity of Unsaturated Soil
Applied SciencesDescribing the hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated soil is very important in predicting water transport. Most current models have complex forms and generally need to be calibrated by the measured unsaturated hydraulic conductivity curve. A simple model,

Soil-Water Characteristic Curve Model Based on Particle Size Distribution and Pellicular Water [PDF]
长江科学院院报Traditional models for predicting soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) based on particle size distribution curve require segmentation of the curve when calculating water content and often neglect the pellicular water (also known as film water) content ...

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Parallel wiring of bioelectrochemical devices with conventional generators unexpectedly boosts output. A biophotovoltaic paired with a solar cell delivers up to 50% more power at low loads than their separate contributions; a plant microbial fuel cell shows similar current gains.

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This paper presents an agar medium with a phosphorescent grid pattern that measures the stress distribution generated by growing plant roots. Using phosphorescence, the system optically separates the grid pattern from the root and extracts the grid deformation.
